useful Improvements in Attachments for Pails; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the lnvention, such as will enable others skilled o in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

'lhis invention relates to attachments for pails, and has for its object to provide means in connection with the upperedge thereof to 5 prevent the contents of the pail when poured therefrom from running down the outer side and spilling on the fioor or other place.

It will be observed that the bail is fastened to the inner side of the pail as it would make it rather cumbersome to attach it tothe outer side in this form of construction. If the pail the thickness thereof; and by being bound x around and riveted where the ends lap will also serve the purpose of an upper hoop. It
